Deep Cleaning for Lasting Freshness and Healthier Living

Despite the daily tidying, most homes can stand to have a deep clean every couple of months. Consider these your seasonal refreshers!

Kitchen Deep Cleaning

• Shimmy appliances: Crumbs and dust find their way behind toasters, fridges and microwaves. Slide the drawers out, wipe down the surfaces and clean underneath.
• Sanitize cabinets and handles: Use a mild yet effective cleaner to disinfect them.
• Scrub out the sink: Baking soda and a little lemon juice are natural deodorizers.

Bathroom Boost

• Shower, tile grout: To kill mold or soap scum with a mix of baking soda, vinegar and water, scrub with a stiff-bristled brush.
• Toilets and floor edges: Don’t skimp on those problematic corners that are easy to overlook.
• Replace Accessories: Clean or replace shower curtains or liners as necessary.

Living Room & Bedrooms

• Vacuum upholstery and mattresses: Attachments can get down into crevices and under cushions.
• Run throw rugs and pillow covers through the wash: Most are machine washable.
• Windows and blinds: Sunlight seeps into everything, so clean windows and blinds scream freshness instantly, no window streaks please.

Pro Home Cleaning Solutions

• Never mix ammonia and bleach: This is a dangerous combo and should be avoided at all costs.
• Do not oversaturate soft furnishing: Mold thrives in moisture. For mattresses and sofas, a gentle vacuum or a quick steam clean and good ventilation is safest.
• Clean cleaning cloths and sponges frequently: The rags and sponges used for cleaning can contain bacteria if you don’t rinse and dry them thoroughly after use.

Stop throwing your money in the trash when you would use up expensive paper towels instead of reusable microfiber cloths.

Improve Air Quality

Poor indoor air can be a cause of headaches, fatigue or allergies. Here’s how to ensure the air in your home is as crisp as it appears:

• HEPA vacuum filters: Upgrade to a vacuum with a HEPA filter, which will trap more dust, dander, and allergens.
• Change HVAC/AC filters frequently: A dirty filter means dirty air.
• Open your windows every day, if only for a short time: Fresh air clears vocs (volatile organic compounds) as well as humidity.
• Declutter: More stuff means more dust collecting on surfaces! A minimalist design is less of a hassle to clean and lets air through.
